That's the end of the MVP Summit 2024. I have had an amazing and insightful time. A huge thanks to the organisers, Microsoft staff and all my fellow MVPs who made my first summit. It was great to meet many of you for the first time.

Thanks to OReillyMedia for sending me a copy of Jonah Anderssons book 🤩
I was happy to contribute the Chapter One quote and be a technical reviewer. Jonah's book is a great resource and well-recommended.

Home again after a great M365Summit so many sessions and lots of things to think about. I like the summit as it shows how broad azure is and a chance to see beyond services I normally use.

Finished moving my blog to astro build once again hosting on azure static apps. Very impressed with Astro as a platform so quick and intuitive yet lightweight.
Managed (if a little unnecessary) to get a perfect lighthouse score with the build as well!
